Let's face it; people come to Los Angeles to make it big because LA has it all. From world-famous landmarks to the amazing weather, there's a reason why people love LA. The home to Hollywood, this sprawl of a city was built on glamour which means it contains the most upscale restaurants, extravagant shopping, and is the standard when it comes to nightlife. But the city is more than just glitz, star-gazing, and the rich and the famous. LA happens to be an eclectic mix of cultures, communities, and cuisine, which means you're never too far from what it is you crave. You'll find world-class architecture, museums, and urban city life rubbing elbows with the palm tress, beaches, and picturesque valleys. If you want to have fun in the sun, you need to be in LA.

• 2 Rent a car. It's the best way to get around and many car rental agencies are located at LAX. Also, get it with GPS, you won't regret it.
• 3 LA = Traffic. Try to avoid it when it's most busy at 3-7:30p Mon-Sat.
• 4 Your best bet is valet parking as street parking is hard to find. Always check the signs.
• 5 International calling code is +1 and you must dial area codes.
